HE Who is Awesome

Who loves the sad clowns? I do, I do! God, I adore the Internet. It only took me about three minutes to do all the research I needed to appease my appetite for info about He Who Gets Slapped. Turns out, not only was it the first film under the MGM banner, but it was Lon Chaney's first film with them as well. Awesome. Here are the promised pics. My apologies to the clown-haters of the world, but it's my birthday, so actually, you can shove it. I will apologize for the weird layout, however.

I know you just watched this film on the beloved and in my case dearly departed TCM, because I saw that the wonderful Tom Kenny had picked it as one of his favorite movies, and somehow, he got the privlige to have an evening devoted to his favorite films air on TCM! How Fucking Brilliant! I'm sad I could not have watched it with you.

P.S. Speaking of sad clowns I was thinking just today how much I love Babtiste in Children of Paradise
